Product Information

A physical/inorganic sunscreen with the broadest spectrum (UVB and UVA II, less good at UVA I) protection available today. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it reflects or absorbs, Titanium Dioxide is a pretty awesome sunscreen agent for two main reasons: it gives a nice broad spectrum coverage and it's highly stable. The drawback of mined minerals is potential impurities and the version used in cosmetics has to be white (not gray like cheaper grades), free from asbestos, sterilized and have thin plates for a maximum slip.

Being a 100% mineral sunscreen, a cast is expected but the cast level is very low (in my opinion) among mineral sunscreens.I chose 12 sunscreens to test based on their ingredients and average ratings, then evaluated their . After many unsuccessful tries, this is the best very-low-silicone sunscreen I can find for daily use. It gives a nice non-oily light skin feel and it can improve the slip of the formula without leaving a tacky residue behind.
